Don't ever bet against the American people

President Obama said in his Saturday talk to the nation today not to bet against the American people, because we CAN do it.  I entirely agree.  I am tired of hearing that we can't do anything different than we ever did.  How do they think we ever got to where we were when this country was the best place to live and the most admired in the world?  We tried new things, we changed the old ways, and we can find new ways and do new things again.  So stop saying "No, you can't"  and join us in saying "Yes, we can."

"So to all the naysayers out there, I say this:  Don’t ever bet against the American people.  Because we don’t take the easy way out.  That’s not how we deal with challenge.  That’s not how we build this country into the greatest economic power the world has ever known.  We did it by summoning the courage to persevere, and adapt, and push this country forward, inch by inch.
